voice revision (Trpný rod)
Pokiaľ tento podmet vykonáva nejakú činnosť, hovoríme, že sloveso je v činnom
rode. Naopak, keď podmet prijíma činnosť, sloveso je v trpnom rode.
Máme pred sebou dvojicu viet:
A. ČINNÝ ROD: Lisa rozbila okno. = Lisa broke the window.
B. TRPNÝ ROD: Okno rozbila Lisa. = The window was broken by Lisa.
